Chapter Twenty-Four: A Different Bullet
Hearing this, Lin Xiaotian couldn't help but show a look of disgust on his face, Xu Bohao was obviously unreasonable and sophistry, and then said, "Director Liu also said just now, it was done by an acquaintance. But there is no specific department, so everyone should not be pressured. All right? After speaking, Lin Xiaotian's eyes swept over everyone present, except for Xu Bohao's gloomy face and Yuan Yixiao's gloating smile, the others were fine. Then he said, "Director Liu, you can continue." ”
"Okay, I have the following questions about Bohao's speculation. First, if the fat man heard the gunshot, he shouldn't have taken the gun out at the first time. Second, if the fat man sees the murderer, shouldn't he shoot immediately, is it necessary to walk in front of the murderer? ”
Xu Bohao thought for a while, and replied hesitantly, "It may be that after the murderer killed Ah Lie, he hid it, and then killed him after the fat man came." ”
"But it's empty around, and there's nothing to cover it from! And even if the murderer hid in advance, when he walked to the fat man, the fat man would not be alert, could it be that the fat man was waiting for the murderer to kill? ”
Xu Bohao didn't say anything for a long time, but Yuan smiled "hahaha" and said to Xu Bohao, "Deputy Director Xu, why is there no word for this, you can also answer that the fat man was scared stupid at the time, or directly said that he met a ghost." Ha, ha, ha. ”
Facing Yuan Yixiao's ridicule, Xu Bohao clenched his fists, his face turned red, his lips squirmed, but he couldn't say a word.
At this time, Xiao Guodong's deep voice rang out. "Well, these points alone are not enough to prove that there is a ghost inside us. Before there is no evidence, everyone is still tight-lipped and does not talk too much about the outside world. ”
Everyone can hear that Xiao Guodong wants to suppress things first. Liu Congwen lowered his head and pondered for a moment and said, "Stationmaster, then we also have to do some homework in advance and screen the personnel who know the content of this operation first." ”
Before Xiao Guodong could reply, Lin Xiaotian preemptively said, "I think Director Liu's opinion is feasible, although there is no definite evidence yet, it is always good to take precautions." ”
Xiao Guodong hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, but the investigation must be carried out in secret, and the movement should not be too big." From the text, it's up to you to be responsible. The rest will have to wait for the results of further inquests at the police station! ”
Liu Congwen nodded and responded, "Okay." ”
Xiao Guodong asked again: "Do you have any questions?" The rest of the people didn't speak. Xiao Guodong said casually, "Then let's do this today and dismiss the meeting." With that, he walked straight out of the conference room.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xiaotian was in the office, in a daze in front of an evidence bag containing three bullets. This is the warhead taken from the corpses of Alie and the fat man.
The police department's investigation concluded that the cast components of the bullet did not belong to any of the types currently dispensed at the station. According to the composition analysis of the warhead, it should have been cast at the North China Arsenal a few months ago, and now it has been discontinued.
Even if you look at it with the naked eye, you can see that there is a clear difference between these bullets and the bullets that are now standing and uniformly distributed, both in color and color. At that time, the distribution range of this kind of bullet was also very wide, and the Nanjing Station of the Military Command was one of them at that time, so it was almost impossible to start from the ownership of the bullet.
Hearing this news, the happiest person was Xu Bohao, and at that time, Xiao Guodong directly made a decision, this matter has nothing to do with Nanjing Station, the station stopped all investigations, and the investigation of the case was handed over to the police station.
This matter seemed to have come to an end in the eyes of others, but Lin Xiaotian felt a faint uneasiness in his heart.
Lin Xiaotian looked at the bullet in the evidence bag in his hand, and repeatedly recalled in his mind what Liu Congwen said: "The murderer's clothes are likely to have a lot of blood stains on them. He remembered that Wu Tongguang was wearing a black tunic this morning. And the most important thing is that the Browning pistol he gave Wu Tongguang should be loaded with this type of bullet.
Lin Xiaotian picked up the phone, shook a few numbers, and after a while, the phone was connected, only to hear Lin Xiaotian say, "Hey, secretary's room." ”
"I'm Lin Xiaotian, and I'll ask Wu Tongguang to come to my office."
"Yes, now."
After putting down the phone, Lin Xiaotian leaned heavily on the office chair. After a few moments, there was a knock at the door.
Lin Xiaotian guessed that Wu Tongguang was coming, he sat up straight and said, "Please come in." ”
As the door was pushed open, it was Wu Tongguang who walked in. Wu Tongguang bowed slightly and said, "Deputy Stationmaster Lin, are you looking for me?" ”
Lin Xiaotian responded, "Sit, with the light." ”
Wu Tongguang walked to Lin Xiaotian's desk and sat down according to his words.
Lin Xiaotian surprisingly poured a cup of tea for Wu Tongguang this time and handed it to him. Wu Tongguang was flattered and took it carefully.
Then Lin Xiaotian chatted a few words with Wu Tongguang without a match, roughly asking Wu Tongguang about his work habits? Do you have any difficulties in life?
Wu Tongguang just replied politely: "Thank you, Deputy Stationmaster Lin, for your concern." ”
"Everything's fine." In fact, Wu Tongguang had some doubts in his heart, Lin Xiaotian called himself this time, and he was so polite to himself, and he asked himself some trivial things that had nothing to do with work, which was not like his usual style. Sure enough, Lin Xiaotian's next question made Wu Tongguang understand the real purpose of Lin Xiaotian's search for him this time.
"Tongguang! The Browning pistol you were given, is it still easy to use? Lin Xiaotian's question was very clever, this was Wu Tongguang's words. If Wu Tongguang replied, "It's okay." "Then it proves that Wu Tongguang has shot, and a clerk has actually shot, which will undoubtedly increase suspicion of Wu Tongguang.
Just when Wu Tongguang was about to blurt out the word "okay", he suddenly realized that this might be a trap, and swallowed back the two words he was about to say. Wu Tongguang calmed down and said, "I wear this gun on my body every day, just to make it fresh, I haven't used it, and I won't use it at all." Of course, the gun used by Deputy Stationmaster Lin must be a good gun. ”
Lin Xiaotian smiled and nodded, and continued, "Show me, okay?" ”
"Of course." Wu Tongguang hurriedly took out the gun from his back waist and handed it to Lin Xiaotian. After Lin Xiaotian took the gun, he immediately unloaded the magazine, and then withdrew all the bullets one by one, and he looked carefully at the bullets scattered on the table.
After taking a closer look, Lin Xiaotian found that all the bullets were very similar in color and luster to the bullets in the evidence bag. It should be able to judge that this is the same batch of bullets produced by the North China Arsenal. However, there is no shortage of bullets in Wu Tongguang's magazine, and the bullets are all of the same category. Can this judge that this matter has nothing to do with Wu Tongguang? Of course, Lin Xiaotian got the answer no, because there were still two magazines handed to him at that time.
Lin Xiaotian raised his head and stared straight at Wu Tongguang, Wu Tongguang's expression was the same, but he was a little inexplicable by Lin Xiaotian. Then he threw out a sentence, "Deputy Stationmaster Lin, is there anything else?" ”
Lin Xiaotian retracted his gaze and said, "Oh, it's nothing. Then he put the bullet on the table back into his clip.
